An elephant's best friend

Earlier this year, CBS aired a story about a dogand elephant that were best buds: Tara and Bella. They were so close that when Bella (the dog)got sick, Tara (the elephant) waited for weeksoutside the house Bella was staying in.

After the story aired, the owners of theelephant sanctuary were flooded withmedia requests, and Disney even wanted to make a movie about them. Despite the possibility of fame and fortune, Thecaretakers decided that it would be best just to let these animalsbe animals and let them maintain theirfriendship outside of the spotlight.

At least they let CBS in to film an updateso that folks could still follow theirinspirational story. Check it out below.
